tracted from the Second Branch members
after a good deal OF trouble, and then
there ensutd 9 a long discussion as to why
the First Branch should stand on its dig
nity in q matter so important. 1t was
suggested that the county had as much at
stake rs the city, and it would be unfair
for the city to send six members to a joint
meeting mt which the county was only
represented by three members, and there
was a disposition to let the First Branch
be allowed the two members and the Sec
ond Branch one. Finally a vote was
reached on the proposition TO adopt the re-
port of the Committee on Conference, and
the report was agreed to, ayes 10, noes 6.

CANNOT COME.
PRESIDENT CLEVELAND FINDS HIMSELF
COMPELLED TO DECLINE
The Invitation Of the Chamber Of Commerce :
Visit Wheeling on His Contemplated Western
T.ip-A Delicate Defamation.

President Cleyeland'S Father long delay
in answering the invitation sent him by
the Chamber ofCommerce to visit the city
during his contemplated western trip, led
many to hope that the answer would be
favorable, and Judging from the reply 1t Is
evident that the President did seriously
consider the invitation, and would have
come TO Wheeling could he have con-
veniently done so.
Mr.. c. W. Brockunier, Chairman Of the
Invitation Committee, who is at Mt. Lake
Park, received President Cleyeland's re-
ply, and yesterday mailed it to DIR. L. ID.
Logan, President Of the Chamber Of Com
merce, who received it last evening. The
letter is written on linen paper, in a plain
round hand, evidently that of q Secretary,
and is subscribed by the
PRESIDENTS OWN SIGNATURE.
It is sincerely to be regretted that the
President cannot visit the city on this
trip. but the tenor OF the letter conveys
the idea that he may do so on some subse-
ouent occasion, when he will be as heartily
welcomed and Hospitality entertained as il
the following letter had been an accept
ance and he and his charming wife were to
soon be the cIty'sguests. His exceedingly
delicate way of saying "No" makes his
declination almost as pleasing as an accept
ance, aside from the fact that it depriyes
the city of the honor and pleasure of his
and Mrs. Cleveiand's presence. The letter
is as follows:

The Wheeling Railroad Company.

The Wheeling Railroad Company yester-
day begun the erection of their poles on the
South Side, and the work will be carried
on right along from this time forth. The
company are putting up the poles in pairs
on opposite sides of the street, and a wire
will be stretched across the roadway from
one pole to its fellow on the opposite side.
The wire which is to furnish the motive
power TO the cars is to be suspended from
this cross wire, but separated from 1t by
proper insulalOrs.
Last night the Benwood City Council
met aud accorded the Wheeling Company
the right of way through the streets of that
town. The road is to run straight dow
the extension of Jacob street, but its exact
course after coming to the bend at the up
per end of BenwOod, where the wagon road
crosses the line of the b. & o., has not yet
been determined upon. The Council did
not pass the Citizens Company ordinance.

WASHINGTON. September Z, 1881.

EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, September Z, 1887. ]
To C. W. Brocknier, Chairman Of Commit
Tee, DC, DC, Wheeling, W. "a:
DEAR SIR:-I have received the invita-
ton kindly rendered me by the Chamber
of Commerce of Wheeling to visit that city
during my contemplated trip to the West,
and have delayed replying thereto until ]
could definitely determine whether it
would be practicable t avail myself OF
the courtesy extended.
The many similar invitations from other
localities, the circumstances in which the
trip is undertaken to fulfill positive prom
ises to visit st. Louis and Atlanta, and the
limited time l can devote to the journey,
made it necessary to select a route of travel
which would enable me to reach the largest
number of places with the least fatigue
and n minimum consumption Of time.
To follow out this plan, I regret to say,
precludes the possibility of an accept
ance of your invitation, but | trust the
good people of Wheeling will believe that
it is with reluctance that | have abandoned
the thought of visiting their city now.
The novelty of the form of the invita-
ton, engrossed upon a handsome glass vase,
is appreciated, and it will be retained rs a
pleasant souvenir Of the event, and a hap
py reminder of the industries of your peo-
pie. Very truly yours,
GROVER CLEVELAND.
